Business transactions in the society of New Zealand are immensely influenced by the age old
heritage of the nation. Business operations in there are affected by various social perspectives
and for that the formalized relation shared by the natives of the nation; Maoris and the British
settlers of the land happen to have immense impact on New Zealand’s culture which also helps
to protect the age old traditions, culture and values of the native New Zealanders. It has been
observed that the treaty of Waitangi had layed the foundation of the recent political state that is
located in the land of New Zealand (Austin & Pedlow, 2015). It should be mentioned in this
context that the bi-lingualism and bi-cultural characteristic of this particular country denotes the

the opportunities that affect the partnership developments between external and internal
stakeholders.

people has sustained a relation with the British rulers and that provided a fundamental
framework after identifying the provisions which were mentioned in the treaty. All the groups of
stakeholders should collaborate with the agencies of government in order to attain the results.
On the other hand the governmental agencies needs to establish a a partnership with the Maori
population and the collaboration between the Maoris and the government agents is highly
important to improve the cultural appropriateness of the services provided by the concerned
business organization (Austin & Pedlow, 2015).
The local agents play a major role while developing the strategic level coordination. The local
agencies should make sure that integrated delivery of services is done in the regional level and
the collaborative partnership in this way becomes vital for operations of the business when the
new legislation was imposed by the government. the primary responsibility is to represent the
voice and perspective of the relevant individuals from the Maori community and the second
